The liver is the largest detoxification organ in the body, but is easily damaged by unhealthy diets, alcohol, medications and chemicals. According to Healthline, adding some green vegetables to your daily meals is a natural, safe way to support liver detoxification and prevent hepatitis.
One of the highly appreciated vegetables is kale (kale) - rich in antioxidants, vitamin K and plant compounds glucosinolate. These active ingredients help stimulate the production of detoxification enzymes in the liver, increasing the ability to remove toxins from the blood.
In addition, mustard greens - a popular vegetable in Vietnam - also have a similar effect. According to research published in the Journal of Food Biochemistry, broccoli extract helps reduce liver damage caused by alcohol, improves liver enzymes and protects liver cells from oxidation.
Coriander - a familiar spice - contains many anti-inflammatory substances, which help remove heavy metals accumulated in the liver. Also in this group, lettuce and fish have the ability to purify blood and fight bacteria, helping to reduce pressure on the liver when having to treat toxins.
In addition to eating vegetables, experts recommend drinking enough water, limiting foods high in fat and preservatives to reduce the burden on the liver. Adding green vegetables to your daily menu is not only good for your liver but also helps control weight and aids digestion.
